Invincible Castles: Vauban's Unique Fortresses - Full Documentary

Discover the engineering genius of Europe’s impenetrable citadels. 🏰⚔️

In the heart of central Europe are some of the world's most impenetrable military strongholds. In France, 160 megastructure fortresses still line the country's borders 3 centuries after they were constructed. As solid as ever, how did they withstand attack after attack? Was the secret in their materials? Their shape?

In fact, the strength and resilience of these megastructures are due to the genius of one man: Vauban. His first major undertaking produced a defense system that would become his signature trademark: Star-shaped fortifications. Thanks to the country's iron belt of strongholds, French territory was well protected from numerous wars in the 17th and 18th centuries.

With recreations, historical frescos, 3D animations, and interviews with expert historians, discover the greatest military strongholds of all time.
